As we reported here, Easter Sunday (April 12) saw music mogul Diddy take to Instagram live to hold “the world’s biggest dance-a-thon” to raise funds for healthcare workers at the frontlines of the coronavirus pandemic.

And, while the event drew big names like Drake, Jennifer Lopez, Kelly Rowland, Megan Thee Stallion, and more, one found herself the center of controversy – Lizzo.  When the ‘Truth Hurts’ diva turned to twerk, Diddy cut her off to suggest the action was inappropriate given the day and the audience.   Yet, when model-actress Draya performed the same action later on the livestream, she did so uninterrupted.

His response led to backlash, with many branding him a ‘fat shamer.’ More inside:

PJ is poised for big things and highlights why live on That Grape Juice!

Signed to Atlantic Records, the soulful songbird has amassed an impressive catalogue of cuts that she’s penned for the likes of Usher, Chris Brown, Meek Mill, Fantasia, and Danity Kane. 

All the while, she’s been working diligently on her own material – dropping projects such as ‘Rare’ and ‘Walking Around Pools.’

Undoubtedly, though, ‘One Missed Call’ has served as her breakout.

The catchy-track, which has racked up over 2 million views of its video, tells the true-life story of a straying partner.

With a luminously bright future ahead of her, watch PJ shine live on That Grape Juice above and let us know…

Contemporarily, commercial comebacks don’t come any bigger than Mariah Carey‘s trailblazing return to supremacy with ‘The Emancipation of Mimi.’

A legendary body of work that is now celebrating its 15th anniversary.

Prior to its release on April 12th 2005, the diva’s career was on uncertain terrain.

The tanking of 2001’s ‘Glitter’ effectively KO’d her colossal Virgin Records deal and 2002 follow-up ‘Charmbracelet’ (her first release for Island Def Jam) did not deliver commercially — despite favourable reviews and media omnipresence on the promo trail.

Fortunately for the songbird, the latter LP – her first under the tutelage of LA Reid – would prove to be the calm before the seismic storm.

For, following the one-two punch thrown by ‘Emancipation’s preceding singles ‘It’s Like That’ and ‘We Belong Together,’ Mariah would go on to ignite one of the hottest streaks of her illustrious career. And blaze her way to the top of the Pop cultural landscape.

With ‘Mimi,’ the star earned her 16th and 17th #1 hits on the Billboard Hot 100, was certified 6x Platinum in the US (pure sales), and sold 12 million copies of the album worldwide. Very much a Tina Turner ‘What’s Love Got To Do With It’ moment for the 00s. And arguably a story and level of success that has yet to be seen since.

In salute of the set’s landmark anniversary, which notably comes months after Carey’s 19th #1 and weeks after her 50th birthday, That Grape Juice have tallied our top tracks from ‘The Emancipation Of Mimi.’
